Good news for Manning and Wayne


Recommended Posts

Jim Caldwell is planning on more of the same from Tom Moore and Howard Mudd, the former Indianapolis Colts assistant coaches who have returned to the team.

 

“They will be doing basically the same things they’ve been doing,’’ Caldwell said today. “We’re excited to have them back . . . with their tremendous experience.’’

 

Since 1998, Moore, 70, was the team’s offensive coordinator and Mudd, 67, its offensive line coach. Each retired in May because of concerns with the NFL’s pension program.

 

Their return comes with new titles. Moore will be senior offensive coordinator and Mudd senior offensive line coach.

 

The return of the long-time aides and their continued heavy involvement with the offense is critical. Moore and Mudd have worked in tandem with quarterback Peyton Manning since the team selected him with the first overall pick in the 1998 draft.

 

Over that 11-year stretch, the Colts offense ranks No. 1 in the league in points scored, total offense, passing offense and third-down conversions. Manning has won three NFL MVP awards.

This all sounds good for Indi, but Manning will be drafted too early as usual. Wayne seems ready to have a big year and I like Gonzales to break out this year without Marvin.
